A black and white reproduction photograph of downtown La Puente, ca. 1920s. The photographer was standing next to the Southern Pacific railroad tracks just south of the town.

The structure at the center is the First National Bank, one of two banks in town. Other commercial structures are seen around it. In the background is Puente Hill, now the Industry Hills complex. As a new print, the image is in mint condition.
